Snowboard Style Freeriding at its Finest!

With a symmetrical shape and stance for a balanced centre of gravity as well as the ability to weight and unweight the deck through turns for control and efficient energy generation, these performance downhill boards will change the way you experience topography.

FUNCTIONAL DESIGN
Tapered shape maximizes wheel clearance for deep carves and tight turns. Sidecuts reduce torsional stiffness between the feet for greater nuances in the turning radius. Mild concave provides edge-to-edge control, while the topmount and cambered platform provides energetic carving performance. Increased energy return results in an even more dynamic ride. These cores are significantly stronger and more durable than Loaded's old oak cores.

CURVACEOUS CONFIDENCE
Lightweight, snowboard-inspired bamboo and fiberglass construction pair with a cambered profile for a lively and engaging ride.

LIGHT & DURABLE
Available in two sizes and five flex ratings to tailor the ride to your stance, weight, and style. Lower flex is ideal for heavier riders; higher flex is recommended for lighter riders or those looking for a more responsive board.

SUPER SAP
Bio-based epoxy by Entropy Resins. Uses bio-based materials from industrial waste streams such as tree sap to replace petroleum content and reduce the carbon footprint of the epoxy from manufacturing. Loaded have worked closely with Entropy to enhance every major performance characteristic of the resin. Better for the planet, even more fun
